This approach aims to identify and address the root patterns contributing to a patient's condition.

TCM offers several approaches for respiratory health, focusing on strengthening the body's defensive qi and supporting healthy respiratory function. Acupuncture may help open the airways and promote immune balance, while Chinese herbal medicine formulas are traditionally used to support lung health.
